Chapter 122: Can't Sit Still (Supplement)
There wasn't much left, Emperor Hengde read it quickly, Shen Bai waited for him to soak his feet, and helped him pinch his feet to relieve fatigue, and Emperor Hengde fell asleep soon after lying down.
Shen Bai blew out the lamp and walked out of the dormitory lightly, Sun Yuehai had been guarding outside, and when he saw Shen Bai coming out, he subconsciously stepped forward to stop her.
Sun Yuehai is an old man who serves in front of the emperor, and Emperor Hengde did not ask him to arrange Shen Bai's residence, that is, let Shen Bai live in Dongxuan Palace, of course he can't let Shen Bai walk around.
Shen Bai didn't want to go anywhere, she saw Gu Hengzhou holding a long sword and standing under the eaves outside the dormitory, Shen Bai smiled at Sun Yuehai gently, raised his finger and pointed at Gu Hengzhou, indicating that he just wanted to go over and see Gu Hengzhou.
Shen Bai is unreliable, but Gu Hengzhou is the most reliable young man in the entire Zhaoling, Sun Yuehai hesitated, but stepped back and let Shen Bai pass.
The snow has stopped, the clouds have dispersed, the bright moonlight pours down, the large snow reflects the moonlight, everywhere looks bright, brighter than usual, if you can accompany a pot of hot wine at this time, a cup of drinking is simply a blissful thing in the world.
Shen Bai walked to Gu Hengzhou's side and followed his line of sight, only to see a distant dark night sky.
She is an active person, she squirmed around for a long time in the imperial study today, and felt uncomfortable anywhere, standing next to Gu Hengzhou at this time, looking at the dark night sky, she didn't feel bored at all, but felt unprecedented peace and tranquility.
In the last life, she was either fighting with those old foxes in the court, or she was drunk and dreaming of death in the land of fireworks, her ears were all noisy and decadent, and there was only boundless loneliness left in her heart.
She has loved the person of two lifetimes, and this time is just standing by her side, as long as she works hard, maybe one day she will be able to marry him justifiably.
Thinking of that scene, the corners of Shen Bai's lips rose uncontrollably, Gu Hengzhou was as steady as Mount Tai, his head didn't even move, and he asked in a deep voice, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Shen Bai looked at him in surprise, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, he didn't move at all, and he didn't know how to see that she was laughing.
I don't know if she was a little annoyed by her, Gu Hengzhou finally turned his head to look at her, and unexpectedly bumped into a pair of sparkling eyes, the bottom of those eyes were full of bright likes and expectations, more dazzling than the vast stars, and his face, which had been tense, was almost infected to the point that he couldn't hold back, Gu Hengzhou asked coldly: "After such a big disaster, you can still laugh!?" ”
His tone was very stern, and Shen Bai grabbed his hand and wrote in his palm: The person who caused the trouble is not me, Brother Gu, what are you doing to kill me?
Although she was not the one who caused the trouble, she was the one who was now at the center of the storm.
She is the only one in the entire palace who is missing, and if she wants to prove to His Majesty that she is not Jiang Qinse, who she has humiliated, she can only confess that she is actually her daughter.
Speaking out about this at this time, not only the Jiang family, but also the four princes and the Li family will not let her go.
Gu Hengzhou's brows furrowed, but Shen Bai didn't care at all, and continued to write in his palm: "Brother Gu, this is the first time I've been on duty with you."
Shen Bai bent her eyes after writing, as if even if she was going to be pushed to the noon gate tomorrow, she would be very happy to be with him tonight.
Gu Hengzhou's lips smacked twice, and he couldn't say a cold reprimand, and even the coldness in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows melted into two points.
He has no temper at all for the person in front of him now, she is flamboyant, can speak, and says that she likes him very much at every turn, and wants to go to the soup for him, he doesn't know what to do with her.
Gu Hengzhou didn't speak again, and Shen Bai stopped writing, only secretly grabbed Gu Hengzhou's hand and didn't let go.
She had just come out of Emperor Hengde's dormitory, her whole body was warm, Gu Hengzhou had a strong physique, and she stood outside for a long time, although her hands were not frozen, they were far less warm than Shen Bai's hands, and Shen Bai's hands were like a small stove that continuously transmitted warmth to his hands.
Gu Hengzhou frowned and thought for a moment, but he didn't break free after all.
I don't have to take someone around tonight, and it's actually very boring to stand outside the dormitory all the time.
Shen Bai was still able to accompany Gu Hengzhou without changing his face in his previous life, but now this body is really delicate and has not suffered much, when it is over, her hands and feet are frozen, and the drowsiness is also swept violently, the person is still standing, but her head is already sleepy and poked, and she almost fell down several times, after Gu Hengzhou pulled it back, she rubbed her face and continued to hold on.
After repeating this several times, Shen Bai didn't survive after all, and after being pulled back by Gu Hengzhou again, he fell into his arms, and the next moment he let out a small snoring sound, and the person was already completely asleep.
Gu Hengzhou directly picked up Shen Bai, Sun Yuehai also took a nap, and when he saw this, he hurriedly walked over, lowered his voice and asked, "Your Royal Highness, Young Master Shen is asleep, what should I do now?" ”
Gu Hengzhou said: "Open the door and let her go in and sleep." ”
Sun Yuehai immediately shook his head: "After the first queen died, His Majesty never let people stay in Dongxuan Palace, and it is not good to let Young Master Shen sleep in this house." ”
Gu Hengzhou said: "Then let her freeze outside all night, what happened to you can be responsible?" ”
Sun Yuehai shook his head again, if the concubine of Taifu froze to death in the palace, he would not be able to bear this responsibility even if he picked off his own head.
Sun Yuehai also knew that he couldn't wake up Emperor Hengde to ask such an inconsequential trivial matter at this time, so he gritted his teeth and decided to listen to Gu Hengzhou, and lightly pushed open the door of the dormitory.
Gu Hengzhou carried Shen Bai into the house, didn't wake up Emperor Hengde, and directly took off Shen Bai's shoes and put her on the soft collapse outside.
The charcoal fire in the house was very hot, and the temperature was much higher than outside, but it was still a little cold to sleep like this, Gu Hengzhou thought about it, and took off his coat to cover Shen Bai, and then exited the room.
It was very cold outside, Sun Yuehai saw that Gu Hengzhou had taken off his coat, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Gu Hengzhou's look.
The eyes were very cold, and there was a faint hint of murderous aura as a warning, and the image of the prince of Zhenguo, who was usually indifferent and cold, was completely different, and he was more like a murderous commander.
Sun Yuehai's spine was cold, he lowered his head and swallowed the words that came to his mouth, closed the door of the dormitory slipperily, and retreated to the position just now to guard.
Shen Bai slept very deeply this night, and when she was woken up by Gong E the next day, she thought she was in Taifu's Mansion, and she wanted to get angry when she opened her mouth, and there was a sharp pain in her tongue, so she remembered where she was, and quickly sat up, and found herself lying on the soft collapse outside the palace of Emperor Hengde, with a thin blanket on her body.
Emperor Hengde kindly let her in and sleep later? Why doesn't she have any memory at all?
Shen Bai was puzzled, and Gong E urged in a low voice: "Young Master Shen, it's time to wait for Your Majesty to change your clothes." ”
At the end of the Caiyin period, the palace people of Dongxuan Palace were busy.
Shen Bai was still very sleepy, his eyes were a little unable to open, he raised his hand and rubbed his face twice, and forced himself to change Emperor Hengde's clothes.
The dragon robe is very complicated to wear, especially in winter, it is necessary to keep warm and not lose the uniqueness of the emperor, it is too cumbersome, Shen Bai is quite familiar with this set of processes, but remembering the incident of last night, she deliberately made two mistakes, and immediately showed a sudden expression of realization after being corrected by Gong E.
Emperor Hengde kept looking at the bronze mirror and didn't say anything about Shen Bai's mistake.
The dragon robe was finally put on, and Shen Bai carefully took the dragon crown and put it on Emperor Hengde's head, and carefully adjusted the angle.
Waiting for the dragon crown to be put on, Shen Bai retreated with a sigh of relief, Emperor Hengde turned around in front of the bronze mirror, and then asked Shen Bai after retreating from the palace: "The eldest princess of Nanxiang Kingdom has been diagnosed with a happy pulse, and she will set off to return to Nanxiang Kingdom in a few days, otherwise you will show your pregnancy in the future, and it is very unsafe to travel and travel, what are you going to do?" ”
It is reasonable for Murong Qi and them to be in a hurry to return to Nanxiang Kingdom, Shen Bai remembered that the child in Luo Li's womb in the previous life was not saved, Luo Li's body was seriously cold, and he was infertile, and a few years later, it was Wei Ruzhao who used a good prescription to let Luo Li recuperate, which reopened the trade between Nanxiang Kingdom and Zhaoling.
Now that the matter of the assassin has not been clarified, it is still missing some opportunity to say that Wei Ruzhao is still vulgar and goes to Nanxiang Kingdom to do business, Shen Bai grabbed the hand of Emperor Hengde and wrote the word "wait" in his palm.
Emperor Hengde was not surprised by this answer, and asked: "After the envoys of the Southern Xiang Kingdom left Beijing, it is almost time for the envoys of Yuexi to leave......
Before Emperor Hengde finished speaking, Shen Bai wrote the word "stay" on his hand again.
Emperor Hengde frowned: "Do you want me to leave the Yuexi envoy group?" How long to stay? How to stay? ”
Shen Bai can't say an exact time, the last life Hu Chilie suddenly launched an attack at the beginning of the summer of next year, killed Zhenguo Gong, and captured Yuanfeng County, Hu Xuan is still the king of Yuexi now, with him as a hostage in Zhaoling, at least he can bargain with Hu Chi Lie at that time.
Thinking like this, Shen Bai wrote in the hands of Emperor Hengde: There is a shortage of planting technology in the western part of the country, and His Majesty can post a notice to recruit agricultural masters and follow the envoys of the western part of the country, which can be regarded as promoting friendly relations between the two countries.
Since the notice is for everyone in the Zhaoling Kingdom, it will take at least more than a month from the collection to the selection of the most suitable candidates, and if you can buy these times, you should be able to figure out what happened in the previous life that led to the death of Zhenguo Gong in Yuanfeng County.
Shen Bai's reason was quite justified, and Hu Xuan had no reason to refuse, but Emperor Hengde didn't agree immediately, he looked at Shen Bai with deep eyes and asked, "I need a reasonable reason." ”
All the envoys are here to congratulate Emperor Hengde on his birthday, and the New Year will be celebrated in more than a month, and the other envoys are gone, and the Yuexi envoys are left in Zhaoling for the New Year, and it is not because Yuexi has the most enmity with Zhaoling, Zhaoling is ready to repay the grievances with virtue, and the envoys will be raised in vain and then sent back.
It's hard to say why.
Because of the memory of the previous life, Shen Bai can be regarded as having the ability to predict the future, but she can't let anyone else know about this kind of thing, and many things have changed since she was reborn, and it is not easy to say whether the future will still be the same as in her memory.
Shen Bai took a deep breath and wrote in Emperor Hengde's hand: "Your Majesty asked me to take the High Priest of the Eastern Hengguo Kingdom to visit Hanjing some time ago, and the High Priest was very satisfied with my hospitality, and in return, he asked me to remind Your Majesty to be wary of the people of the Western Kingdom, who may start a war early next summer.
Shen Bai pushed everything on Hanchen, after all, it was well known that the high priest of Dongheng Kingdom had the ability to deduce, and now that Hanchen had already returned to Dongheng, Emperor Hengde would not be able to confront him even if he wanted to verify it.
Emperor Hengde's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, deducing this kind of thing is the same as the saying of ghosts and gods, if you believe it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it.
But if Yuexi really wants to start a war, it will not involve one or two lives, but hundreds or thousands of people.
Emperor Hengde's eyes were so cold that he could quench ice, this matter was not trivial, he couldn't trust Shen Bai, but he couldn't disbelieve it.
The atmosphere was condensed, and Sun Yuehai urged outside: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to court early." ”
Emperor Hengde withdrew his hand and strode out, Sun Yuehai bowed down to help him sort out his clothes, Emperor Hengde said coldly: "You don't have to go to the court with me today, accompany Young Master Shen in Dongxuan Palace, no matter where she goes, accompany her!" ”
This means that Shen Bai is not restricted from moving freely, but Sun Yuehai must be allowed to look at her and not let her leave his line of sight.
Sun Yuehai was considered Emperor Hengde's confidant, and immediately understood the deep meaning behind these words, nodded again and again, and respectfully watched Emperor Hengde and Gu Hengzhou go to the political hall together.
After the two left, Shen Bai took out a note and gave it to Sun Yuehai, which read: Manager Sun, can I eat something?
Emperor Hengde didn't mean to criticize Shen Bai, Sun Yuehai's attitude towards Shen Bai was naturally very good, and he immediately replied: "Of course you can, the slave has already asked the cook in the imperial dining room to prepare food, and it will be delivered in a while." ”
Shen Bai smiled and narrowed his eyes, waiting for the palace people to bring food.
However, along with the food, in addition to the palace people in the imperial dining room, there is also Concubine De.
Zhao Chou should have come to his senses, and the melancholy on Concubine De's face was reduced a lot, and she became more angry.
She knew that Emperor Hengde was not in the Dongxuan Palace at this time, and the momentum was clearly aimed at Shen Bai.
Shen Bai knew that Concubine De was not good, so she gave a perfunctory salute, took the meat porridge in the hands of the palace people and ate a few big bites first, she was so hungry that she looked a little rude.
Concubine De's eyes flashed with disdain, Sun Yuehai didn't dare to salute respectfully like Shen Bai: "The slave pays a visit to Concubine De, Your Majesty has just gone to the early court, I don't know what Niangniang has to say?" ”
Concubine De sat down in the room and said coldly: "The matter of Jing Yuan's assassination has not been resolved yet, and this palace is here today, so naturally I want to ask for an explanation for him." ”
Sun Yuehai echoed: "What Niangniang said is that His Royal Highness has suffered a great crime this time, and His Majesty will definitely make decisions for His Royal Highness." ”
Concubine De snorted coldly, after a night, she understood that Emperor Hengde now has little patience for Zhao Chou, if he really takes Zhao Chou's son to heart, he should kill the person as soon as he catches the assassin to make an example, instead of staying to diagnose and investigate thoroughly.
The wounds on Jing Yuan's body are real, and the assassin is also real, what else do you need to investigate? Could it be that Jing Yuan, a good prince, would use this method to slander others if he didn't do it?
Thinking of this, Concubine De inevitably thought of the first queen, the woman who had been dead for ten years and could still occupy the name of the queen.
That woman is the white moonlight in Emperor Hengde's heart, only that woman's son can be valued by Emperor Hengde, and once her son has the slightest mistake, he can only be eradicated.
Thinking of this, Concubine De said to Sun Yuehai: "Manager Sun, there are some things in this palace that I want to say to Young Master Shen, you shouldn't stop it, right?" ”
